		<description>CollegeBoard, Princeton Review, US News, Petersons... these in particular are based on (sometimes lengthy) annual surveys sent to colleges. Someone at your institution receives these surveys and (likely) submits them.

Another survey top-of-mind and not on your list is Wintergreen Orchard House, and that info feeds into quite a few other online and offline sources.

In some cases there is login info where the college&#039;s rep can log in and make the updates directly. In other cases they are happy to update the info if you send it their way. Priority app dates are a common question on these surveys, be it early decision, early action, or simply a &quot;priority&quot; app date.

Yesterday I finally started jotting down an eventually comprehensive list of these &quot;college info elsewhere&quot; sites to check annually and contact more urgently when majors or sports are added or dropped, for instance.

CollegeView is another to add to the list.

Zinch pulls their info from somewhere.

Hobson&#039;s owns Naviance now (a critical place to make an app date update), and they can get you login info to check and update your college data.

Between all the blog readers, we can likely generate a good list of external sites that should be on radar.</description>

		<description>You&#039;ll never get it all changed, but within a year, many of the bigger online sites will have updated info based on the surveys that are filled out by your campus personnel (as long as they have the new date). Good luck. 

We must all be aware of the consequences of our actions . . .</description>

		<description>In my experience it would take about 11 years worth of committee meetings before everyone agreed to change the application date anyway.

By that point Google will be intelligent enough to automatically enroll every student in the ideal school for them (as determined by analyzing Facebook profiles).</description>
